by OK OK, I know this must be an easy problem, but I can't figure out if I
need to recompile the kernel or what.
I am trying to upgrade a RH4.0 machine to 4.1. I installed the latest
kernel (2.0.27) via RPM, along with all of the "base" RPMS in 4.1. Now,
the system boots up fine, but refuses to load the SCSI CD-ROM drivers
because it detects that the old (2.0.18) modules or maps (???) are
trying to be loaded in a new (2.0.27) kernel.
The message the machine gives me to tell me about the SCSI problem does
not get recorded to the log file, so I only see it when the system is
coming up.
Am I right in believing that I can upgrade the machine via RPM alone, or
do I need to recompile the kernel manually?
Any help would greatly be appreciated! As you can tell, I am new to
Linux.
